The Catholic Churches morals do not come from society, they come from the Bible. It Is ironic that people think they can teach/change the morals of men who chose select parts of texts to include in a book compiled over centuries influenced by the political climate of the time and claiming to be the word of God...

It has to happen eventually. I honestly believe that the people right now who are 30 and up will be the last of the "thriving church" era..

The internet is educating people like never before, and science is becoming the norm as more things are understood as opposed to being confused about something and stating "god must have _______"

I think your wrong. Being on the other side of 30 (barely at 28) I can tell you that because of the knowledge of the internet people are find God more relevant and meaningful then ever before. Before the interwebs you had a choice of a few pastors within your area. Now, anybody can find a pastor that really speaks to them and teaches them about Christ and the Bible.

The church will eventually fall, but then Jesus will be here and I don't think Any of us will care either way. JMO though.

Back to the OP. Yeah, I agree. He seems more approachable and real. I hope he turns the Roman Catholic church around and gets inline with Jesus and explodes this world for him.

You mean a council that set out to make the 'holy scriptures' more focused on the most important event of that faith? Is that so bad?

Jesus was a humble, loving, caring man who almost everybody could identify with and the State, or the religious leaders (pretty close to the same thing), decided to kill him and got away with it and you're saying they planned on painting them selves in that negative light?

Well, IMO, they did a pretty crappy job. If I were them I would have made Jesus to be a horrible person and would have used my political ways to make my self, as a religious leader (or politician), look even better then I thought I was.

Not only that, But I'd make sure to remove the part where the Main character calls me and my associates a brood of vipers, calls us out for our extreme falseness and makes us look like fools on multiple occasions. But I'm sure your idea is way more logical because you don't believe in the fairy tales.
